We grill out for dinner a lot, and I do mean a lot. At least three times a week usually. A few favorites are hamburgers, chicken tenderloins and pork chops. However, today I’m not talking about dinner ideas, rather sharing a delicious and easy dessert that you do on the grill. One thing I love about cooking on the grill is the lack of clean up! So today I have to share with you Easy Desserts with Sara Lee Pound Cake. I love pound cake so anything that involves it makes me a happy girl!
I headed out to Kroger to pick up my Sara Lee Pound Cake and the other ingredients I needed.
Ingredients
- For Skewers:
- 1 Sara Lee Pound Cake
- Strawberries
- Pineapple Cubes
- Chocolate Syrup
- For Whipped Cream:
- Heavy Whipping Cream
- Sugar
Instructions
- Follow package instructions to thaw out pound cake
- Cut pound cake into thick slices and then into 4 cubes
- Cut the tops off of the strawberries
- Skewer the pound cake, strawberries and pineapple
- Heat up the grill and grill for about 5-10 minutes, flipping the skewers to ensure nothing burns
- For Whipped Cream:
- Beat the Heavy Whipping Cream until thick. Be sure not to over beat it or it will go back to being thin
- Add sugar to achieve desired sweetness
This was our first time grilling a dessert and it was a success! The grilling really added a great taste to the pound cake and the fruit added that extra special touch to it. When we tasted it Tyler said it tasted like s’mores. So we can call this a new twist on s’mores.
I decided to make a homemade whipped cream to go with this dessert and it was so yummy and incredibly simple. You just have to be careful to not over beat it or it will go from thickening back to thin. Top the dessert with the whipped cream and chocolate syrup and serve it hot off the grill for a crowd pleasing dessert!
Tell me, do you have any favorite desserts that you cook on the grill?
I can’t express to you how amazing this looks! I’m ready for lunch and I want this!
It is so delicious!
